NO-WELD SYSTEMS•Unliketraditionalbalustradingandhandrailing,

Moddex systems require no onsite welding or shutdowns for installation due to safety reasons

•Becausenohotworkspermitsarerequiredand no toxic galvanisation fumes are generated, firespottersarenotneededduringinstallation

•Unlikeconventionalsystems,riskofcorrosionat the weld area is reduced, as the galvanised surface is not burnt off by welding

•Handrails,balustradesandguardrailscanbeinstalledbynon-specialisttradeswhileensuringstructuralintegrityandcompliantinstallation

•Notouchuppaintingrequired

MODULAR INNOVATIONModdex’s driving force is to deliver flexible, robust, cost effective and easy to install systems thatsimplifytheinstallationofhandrails,balustrades and guardrails in all environments andforabroadrangeofapplications.

•Allsystemsdesignedformodularassemblyandrapid,streamlinedonsiteinstallation

•Deliveredinreadytoassemble,kitformpackaging

•Fabricationtimeeliminatedwithpre-engineereddesigns, offering unlimited configurations

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYINg

“We were pleasantly surprised at the ease and speed of installation. The fact that there is no need for welding with the Moddex products results in a safer environment for our guys and for the students in the school environment where we undertake our projects. We have estimated that we have saved approximately 30% on our normal installation costs due to the fact that we can use and manage our non-specialist trades. We would certainly look at using the product in future projects.”
